[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]uh women are getting married later and later. I have a bunch of single girlfriends in NYC and they're in their early 30s. If they blew off men in their mid to late 30s there will be no one to partner up with.[/quote]

They are probably content to enjoy variety now and skip the whole baby thing altogether.  They might wait until they are in their 50's or older to get married, retire early and travel the world.  Whatever makes them happy.  We are not all the same.[/quote]

No I get it. What I am saying is that these women if interested in marriage (and I know my friends are) will be looking at men in the same age range, so 35 to 40 is not too late. The people who are commenting men above 35 are spoilt are too young. There are many women in their 30s that will date these men. We're not THAT young.[/quote]

My friend who is now 33 wouldn't date men over 37 when she, herself, was 31 because she didn't want a "confirmed bachelor" type.  Her reasoning is that men do the asking, so if a man hasn't met anyone worth asking in 37+ years, he will probably never think any woman is good enough.  She got married a few months ago to a 32 year old man.[/quote]

Forgive me if I don't see a whole lot of difference between 32 and 37 year old men.

Also, she seems a little old-fashioned with the "men do the asking." Old-fashioned people tend to be the worst when it comes to labeling people as "spinsters" and "confirmed bachelors."[/quote]

Ask the happily married couples in your circle if the man or the woman did the asking.[/quote]
